Spider veins are damaged veins. Every vein in your body has a one-way valve that, when healthy, pushes blood toward your heart. When those valves weaken or become damaged, a portion of that blood flows backward and pools up within the veins. The pressure that this puts on the walls of the vein causes them to show as spider or varicose veins.

The Glo Solution for Spider Veins
Spider veins are caused by varicose veins due to weakened valves, trauma, sun exposure, or even hormones. These thin lines of color beneath the skin can be unsightly and affect your self-confidence. At Glo Medical Aesthetics, you can stop spider veins at their source with our Inmode Vasculaze laser vein treatment in Memphis!
How it Works
Laser vein treatment in Memphis is a relatively simple process that involves using our Inmode Optimus Vasculaze to treat spider veins in the legs, face, neck, or chest. Vasculaze works by targeting pigment in visible veins and eliminating these specific veins. The body reroutes the blood to another healthy vein, and the treated veins eventually die and are absorbed into the body as waste. The treatment can last up to one hour depending on the target area, with some sessions taking as little as 10 minutes!

Results
Laser vein treatment at Glo in Memphis destroys damaged spider veins leaving the patient with a more even skin tone.
Yes. Beyond factors such as your weight, genetics, or age, spider veins can also form if you have a job or lifestyle that includes sitting or standing in the same position for long periods of time. Spider veins can also form due to past blood clots or vein damage, excess pressure caused by coughing and sneezing, or even sun damage to the skin.
With laser vein treatment in Memphis, one treatment is usually enough to completely destroy the damaged vein. However, depending on individual patient issues, a follow-up treatment may be required.
